The first one is a 'plausible' story based in a world where Atlantis was the cradle of human civilization. It gets wierd.
The second one is more serious, and is well worth reading. Avoiding spoilers, the story starts when they find a 50,000+ year old human mummy in an orange space suit on the moon. One of my favourate books.
As for the original topic, well, it is basically Fantasy. Nothing much different than assuming Dragons ruled the world in 700 AD.

Ah yes, the Illuminatus! Trilogy has an *interesting* interpretation of Atlantean existence and civilization.
